Thinking of becoming a minimalist this weekend?

01.06.2017

June 1st is International Barefoot Day, marking the start of Vivobarefoot's Minimalist Month alongside our Spring/Summer Sale. We want to make it easier and more fun than ever for people to try Vivo’s. Helping you spread the word that living with less stuff under your feet (and in your life) ultimately feels... better.

Get involved in our challenges, get outside, get up a hill, get in the ocean or just go for an endorphin fuelled run with - less 'stuff' in your life and under your feet!

Minimalist shoes, minimalist prices

Throughout the month we’ll be offering special minimal sale prices - starting today with up to 25% off selected styles.

If you're feeling generous, perhaps you could give them as a gift for a friend or close family member on the condition they take their maximal 4x4 runners to the recycling depot.

Less shoe, more you. It’s 'stuff'… but it’s god damn good stuff and you’ll want less stuff because of it!

Minimal warning :

we strongly recommend that you only purchase a new pair of vivo shoes if...

You really need them. Perhaps a hiking trip coming up and you need a shoe that can take you off road.

You've considered fixing up an older pair with some TLC. Get some new shoelaces and give them a good rub down with some Nik Wax to keep for yourself or give to a local charity shop.

DO YOU REALlY NEED IT?

Too much ‘stuff’ can sometimes get in the way of the important things in life. We want to encourage people to be more mindful about what they buy and simpllfy life with less stuff...

Does it serve a purpose

Does it serve a real purpose and bring you joy.

What's the environmental cost?

Good for you and treads lightly on the planet.

Does it have emotional durability?

Will you love using or wearing it and does it get better with age?

Throughout June, we’ll be sharing weekly minimalist challenges, each one geared towards reconnecting with what really matters and putting less ‘stuff’ between you and nature. In the meantime, why not get started with 10 fun minimalist things to do this weekend.

WHY VIVOBAREfOOt SHOES?

The human foot is a Biomechanical masterpiece. It can cope with everything from walking and running to jumping and dancing when left to its own devices. But by cramming it into a modern shoe, you negate it’s natural function.

Our strategy is simple; the less we can give you the better.

We’re not out to make a quick buck. But to make the best shoe possible. And we believe that your feet work perfectly just as they are.

Vivobarefoot shoes are foot shaped to allow your feet to move like feet. They have no heel or support. Whilst our ultra-thin protective sole gives you maximum sensory feedback.

You have our promise that we’ll continue to put next to nothing into each and every pair.

LET YOUR FEET DO THEIR NATURAL THING
